Reel in the moon

Newer Older

This was one of the little coves near Porches, we took a wonder down on our second day in Portugal, no tripod, so used my flip-flops to balance the camera and keep it off the sand :) I tried for a few closer shots of the little boat in the moonlight but didn't quite work as planned.

But still, I like the low angle and the lovely moonlight on this one.

Nikon D300, Sigma 18-200 @ 18, f/13, ISO400, 20seconds.

Strobist info : Moon, far away.

    There is a word in Arabic, 'kayf', it describes a feeling of intoxication with the beauty of the natural world. Being a bit of a wordsmith, finding out about this word expanded the meaning of this sense I felt, many times, in quiet places.

    I live in a large city and don't leave it very often, this sense of wonder and fullness isn't something I feel very often anymore, either.

    Thank you, for giving me kayf, tonight.

    PS The boat is perfect, just far enough to dream about.
